Many humanities students aspire to careers in defense and international relations but often struggle to find the right entry point. In this two-part conversation, we sit down with Neha Mishra, Sector Head of Space and Defense Exports at the British High Commission, to unpack practical pathways into these high-impact fields.

From specialized programs, internships, and fellowships to the vital role of mentorship, Neha shares how non-STEM graduates can carve meaningful careers in areas like policy, analysis, and diplomacy. She also explores how core humanities skills, such as research, writing, and critical thinking, translate into day-to-day demands in defense and IR.

Part - II dives deeper into credibility-building, challenges newcomers face, and the future role of humanities-trained professionals in shaping global security and policy.
